“I need to feel appreciated
Like I’m not hated, oh no
Why can’t you see me through his eyes
It’s too bad — you’re making me dizzy.According to me,
You’re stupid
You’re useless
You can’t do anything right.”— “According to You,” Orianthi
When I first heard that song, I didn’t care much for it. But then I ended a dysfunctional relationship, and I went out and bought the extended dance remix.
Today I realized that I could be upset, frustrated, tattered and frayed at the edges. But instead, I’m walking down a red carpet and people are throwing rose petals at me.
Although daylight suits me better than darkness, my new relationship is kinda trippin’ me out. I’m always looking for the hidden slight or steeling myself for the overt omission. And for things to be calm, genuine and positive, well, it catches me off-guard.
It’s all good. Never been better, actually.
One might say I’m downright having a BLAST!!!
